Elvis Presley is rightly called the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll. Not only was he a singing sensation, he was also a movie star! This coin highlights one of hit films Elvis starred in.
Mystic has permanently bonded a vibrant image of Elvis to this uncirculated US Half Dollar. The coin features an original photograph of Presley from his estate’s official archives along with an image of his signature. The coin is officially licensed by Elvis Presley Enterprises.
Viva Las Vegas
Elvis filmed Viva Las Vegas in the summer of 1963. His co-star was lovely Ann-Margret, the sultry bombshell known as the “female Elvis.” The chemistry between the two was obvious and led to rumors that they were engaged. In fact, many tabloid magazines published photos of the film’s wedding scene and reported that the couple had actually married.
Fans flocked to see the movie, making Viva Las Vegas Elvis’ most successful box office film. It grossed nearly $5,000,000, which is equal to more than thirty million dollars today. The movie was the first Elvis film released overseas before its distribution in the US.
Although each married other people, Elvis and Ann-Margret remained friends throughout their careers. Elvis reportedly sent flowers before each of Ann-Margret’s opening nights, and she was the only movie co-star to attend Elvis’ funeral.
While Viva Las Vegas was a moneymaker, production had been over budget and cut into Elvis’ profit – and that of Colonel Parker! To avoid a repeat, Parker secured Sam Katzman, known as the “King of Quickies” to produce Elvis’ next film. Kissin’ Cousins was completed in just 17 days (Viva Las Vegas production lasted twelve weeks).
